E2 (cost-focused general purpose)
A second-generation general-purpose series aimed at everyday workloads at a lower cost. The e2-micro, e2-small and e2-medium sizes are shared-core: they timeshare a physical core and give 2 vCPUs only for short bursts. The CPU platform is Intel or AMD and can vary between VMs. Shared-core sizes are billed as a fraction of a vCPU (0.25 for micro, 0.5 for small, 1 for medium) plus memory.
Good for Low-traffic web servers, back-office apps, containerized microservices, small databases, dev and test
